Tattersalls December Remains On Schedule

The Tattersalls December Sales will take place in Newmarket on their originally planned dates-Nov. 23 through Dec. 3-in accordance with government regulations concerning livestock and horse auctions. The UK will enter its second national lockdown on Thursday and it will run through Dec. 2. The sales will be restricted to those attending in a professional capacity and under strict COVID safety protocols. Live internet and telephone bidding will be available.

“We are delighted and relieved that we have received clarity on this crucial issue and it is clear that the ratified government regulations will allow us to stage the full Tattersalls December Sale on the originally scheduled dates,” said Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony. “This is a huge relief for the industry and we are enormously grateful that the 2020 bloodstock sales season in Britain can proceed and conclude as planned. The Tattersalls December Sale is an event of global significance within the bloodstock industry and the possibility of wholesale disruption was a deeply worrying prospect for all concerned.

“As we all know, staging bloodstock sales in 2020 has been challenging to say the least. To be able to hold the Tattersalls December Sales on the scheduled dates will be universally welcomed and applauded not only in Britain and Ireland, but by the wider bloodstock industry and we will continue to do our utmost to bring the testing 2020 Tattersalls sales season to as successful a conclusion as possible.”
